Install Minecraft Snapshot 13w11a
with the Curse Client

...or download 13w11a direct from Mojang →
other files: minecraft_server.jar, Minecraft_Server.exe.


A bit of a deviation from the usual Snapshot, this one is an early look at 1.5.1 - which contains a number of fixes and tweaks for 1.5 - before its release next week.  What does it have?

  • Ender Dragon can still grief stuff like cobblestone and chests even if the gamerule mobGriefing is set on false.
  • White stitching on polygon edges / White lines or black dots between blocks
  • Unable to combine enchanted books for a higher level enchant.
  • Hopper doesn't try to place items from other slots if unable from first.
  • Fire doesn't show on 8 layered snow and hopper
  • Long scoreboard objective titles can be offset screen
  • Breaking a Container with Items that is connected via a solid block with a Comparator does not update the Comparator
  • Falling Block entities start visually falling from 1 block higher than they were placed
  • Paintings popping out / cannot place new ones
  • a few Minecraft Realms changes

If you don't realise that's a list of bugs that were fixed, not new bugs, that looks like a really bad snapshot.

When is Sach finally going to realize that listing bugs as if they were intentionally added and not saying "Fixed blah blah blah..." confuses people, especially noobs?
There's a swear filter. Yep. Stop making yourself look "ing" ignorant and take note of it.

I didn't see any confused people, but yeah, he should stop that. :3
These look like good bug fixes, though; I heard a lot about those "white lines."  It's kinda nice that we [i]already [/i]get to know what they're working on. I really enjoy these snapshots.

what would be cool is if the next update (1.6) was to add newer Adventure themed stuff, like making bats neutral, adding the ability for players in creative mode to customize mobs easier (ie, add a GUI when you right click them) and even adding the Skylands. Hmm... I wonder... what if there was a way to hatch the dragon egg, like making a nest in the overworld, and it would then combine with a saddle as a transport to the skylands where the ride able dragon acts as a portal to the skylands (sits there and does nothing, click on it to go to skylands, duplikit is sitting at your spawnpoint there) what do you all think? Name it: Adventure+ update
PRETEND THERE IS AN EPIC BANNER RIGHT HERE! oh, fyi, i need beta testers: http://www.minecraft...or-the-captain/

I don't know if I'll ever use a snapshot. I just wait for the updates. Are snapshots worth installing and playing with the risk of encountering possible bugs? I don't really want to be a tester, so am I right in thinking snapshots aren't for me?

You can back up any important worlds or just start a new world that you can test out with the snapshot... Both are really easy, if you know where the files are.

He just needs to change "What does it have?" to "What does it fix?"

I'm going to instantly upgrade to this snapshot, every block had the "stitching" for me... Sigh, well, it's fixed hopefully, haven't tested yet.

And as far as installing, just use Minecraft Version Changer. If you don't want to test, snapshots aren't for you. Getting the new stuff early, without filtering bugs first, takes the joy out of just playing the game. Besides, 1.5 hasn't even defrosted yet. Go have fun with all the new features. If the bugs really bug you that much, I suppose it's a matter of risking new and worse bugs or ignoring the ones you've got now. If you want an art gallery in the end, than you should get the snapshot. Worst that could happen (with in reason) is you'd have to switch back. But with MVC that's easy.

Hoping 1.5.1 fixes some of the lag/FPS issues that were introduced in 1.5.

You can't have a bad snapshot with bug fixes. Snapshots almost have only bug fixes.
